Chapter 172 The Arrival of Jiang Lan

The evening arrived quickly.

Around nine o'clock, the streets were mostly deserted.

Just as Yuan Munye was about to leave, he received another call from Director He.

"What is it, Director He?"

Yuan Munye asked.

"Director Yuan, I heard those people aren't listening to you. Do you need me to give them a call?"

Director He inquired.

"No need."

Yuan Munye said.

"In that case, I've found you a helper."

"A helper? What kind of helper?"

Yuan Munye asked.

Director He chuckled. "You'll find out soon enough."

He deliberately kept it a secret and hung up.

As Yuan Munye was wondering, a stunning beauty approached. She was tall and had perfect features.

It was none other than Secretary Jiang.

Jiang's arrival surprised Yuan Munye, who couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here?"

Jiang smiled. "I heard you've been isolated, so I'm here to support you. What? Are you not happy?"

Er Pang and Da Gao's eyes were glued to Secretary Jiang.

"Miss Jiang, it's the Jiang family's heiress."

Er Pang recognized her quickly and seemed a little excited.

Da Gao added, "Indeed, Miss Jiang is as beautiful as the rumors say."

"Secretary Jiang, you should go back."

Yuan Munye said plainly.

Er Pang and Da Gao looked astonished. They couldn't believe Yuan Munye was rejecting such a beauty.

"Negative emotional value from Jiang Lan +299..."

Secretary Jiang's expression immediately darkened. She stared at Yuan Munye and said, "I'm not going back. I was assigned this mission, and I'm not under your command."

As she spoke, she walked right up to Yuan Munye.

Yuan Munye was speechless but didn't say anything.

It was almost time.

Jiang Lan's presence made it difficult for Yuan Munye to act.

If Yuan Xiaoyao and Zhang Dali came out, Secretary Jiang would definitely notice.

Er Pang and Da Gao might not.

But Secretary Jiang certainly would.

The four of them started walking forward, and surprisingly, no one spoke.

Yuan Munye turned to look at the two chatterboxes beside him. They were actually keeping their mouths shut and dared not speak.

Jiang said, "Yuan Munye, I received information that the evil ghost might appear in Jianghai District."

"Jianghai District? Where's that?"

Yuan Munye asked.

"Get in my car."

Jiang Lan pointed to the car ahead. Yuan Munye didn't hesitate and quickly walked to the car. Soon, he was inside.

As the car moved forward, Jiang Lan asked curiously, "Yuan Munye, you don't have any information at all, do you? Aren't you the commander of this operation?"

"I'm not in charge of commanding."

Yuan Munye said.

Jiang Lan was puzzled. According to the information she received, Yuan Munye was in charge of this operation.

There was no way that was wrong.

Er Pang and Da Gao spoke up. "Miss Jiang, it's those guys who don't know what's good for them. They won't listen to our Director Yuan."

Jiang smiled. "Yuan Munye, so you have this day too. You're proud, but there are people prouder than you."

"Once they suffer, they'll know how amazing our Director Yuan is."

Er Pang said suddenly.

Seeing how protective they were of Yuan Munye, Jiang Lan became curious and started observing them. "Who are you two?"

She knew they weren't Yuan Munye's men.

They must be from Jiang City.

Hearing Jiang ask who they were, the two became excited and started introducing themselves.

After a few sentences, Jiang lost interest.

The two of them immediately lost their enthusiasm, their faces falling as if they had just been dumped.

Jiang's gaze returned to Yuan Munye.

"Yuan Munye, are you confident this time? Just the four of us? I know this evil ghost is no ordinary one. Last night's encirclement failed. The evil ghost not only killed the paranormal investigators but also escaped unscathed, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Yuan Munye said.

"Last night, you fought him. What do you think of the evil ghost's strength?"

Secretary Jiang continued to ask.

"It's hard to say. Probably about the same as you."

Yuan Munye said nonchalantly.

Jiang's expression became serious.

Her current strength was in the early stages of the Ning Yuan realm. If the evil ghost had reached that level, it meant it was at least a Level 6 evil ghost.

Furthermore, this evil ghost was different from the others. It could perfectly attach itself to a living person.

That made it very difficult to deal with.

After about twenty minutes, the car arrived at Jianghai District.

Jianghai District was quite large, so they couldn't rely on walking alone. They had to drive. Soon, Yuan Munye encountered the other paranormal investigators.

They had already narrowed the encirclement.

This saved Yuan Munye some trouble, as he roughly knew where the evil ghost was hiding.

Jiang Lan parked the car and got out, scanning her surroundings.

After a moment, she said, "Yuan Munye, the Yin energy is quite heavy here."

"Yeah, be careful."

Yuan Munye said quietly.

After getting out of the car, Er Pang and Da Gao didn't say a word and quickly followed Yuan Munye, practically sticking to him like glue.

They knew that leaving Yuan Munye meant courting death.

The other paranormal investigators who had arrived earlier acted as if they didn't see Yuan Munye, but they greeted Jiang.

Jiang noticed this and said to Yuan Munye, "Are these people not only uncooperative but also making things difficult for you?"

"It's nothing."

Yuan Munye said indifferently.

"How is it nothing? I'll talk to them."

Secretary Jiang was annoyed that they were treating Yuan Munye this way. She wanted to give them a piece of her mind.

Given the Jiang family's status in the provincial capital, these people wouldn't dare to go against Jiang Lan.

However, Yuan Munye quickly stopped her.

"Don't create unnecessary trouble. Catching the evil ghost is more important."

They were currently in a commercial center, surrounded by shops and streets. Cars were parked everywhere.

Everything seemed normal, except that the Yin energy was indeed heavier here.

Soon after Yuan Munye and the others arrived, a figure approached them.

The person was wearing a security guard uniform. He looked at them and said, "What are you doing here?"
